I believe the answer is:

drama

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'song and dance' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to communication as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?

'short introduction to armenian' is the wordplay.
'short' becomes 'dram' (both can mean a small alcoholic drink).
'introduction to' indicates taking the first letters.
The initial letter of 'armenian' is 'a'.
'dram'+'a'='DRAMA'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for drama that I've seen before include "Exciting play or event" , "Stage play - turmoil" , "Play, emotional series of events" , "Theatrical piece" , "Stage play, may be exciting" .)
